1H 2023-2024

We had lots of fun in maths today with 2D shapes. We made different pictures and then counted how many of each shape we used.

Today was Miss Erwin’s birthday so we celebrated with a cake and some party songs. We hope you enjoyed your day. 

We love reading in 1H. We enjoy our cosy reading area to snuggle down with a good story. 

In PE, this week, we went on the scooter boards. We have to use our core muscles and balance skills to propel ourselves around the corridor. 

In computing today, talked about brains. We looked at how humans and animals have brains but computers do not. Then we learnt that for a computer to do anything we must make it. We practised 5is by navigating different games on the iPad. 

In Music, this week, we practised starting and stopping. We took it in turns to be the teacher and tell our friends when to stop and go. 

We really enjoyed mark making outside today with the chalk. 

We were so excited to see a rainbow on our classroom floor today. We looked outside but there was no rainbow and Miss Hanlon explained that the sun was creating the rainbow by reflecting off our classroom window. 

Scissors are still very tricky for a lot of 1H so today we practised by cutting lots of different materials. We enjoyed cutting play doh the most. 

In maths we have been looking at shape every Thursday. Today we looked at 3D shapes and matched different things in our classroom to the correct 3D shape. 

1H went on a walk around the Berry Building to find technology. We found lights, phones, printers and alarms. 

At PCA we follow the Read Write Inc scheme for phonics. Today we practised forming all our letter sounds. Some of us could even write full words. Great work 1H!
